At the end of World War Two, Hauptmann Kjars Winzig and Sergeant Udo Schmidt are just trying to stay alive, and to keep their little squad alive. Mike is a refugee girl, who has desperately hooked up with Winzig as a lover and protector, as primates do when they are reduced to their most primitive and desperate condition.
**********************************************************
"That's the haken crux, (that) each character in Pfirsich Rommel's battalion is just a soldier in the field; he might be a dog-face, fed, reb, tommy, poilu -- he happens to be a kraut. These guys are not political, nor even particularly patriotic -- they're regular bewildered zchlubs, trying to survive in a situation nobody would choose." - Daniel Pinkwater, Young Adult Novel.
